I don’t see a supermajority for the Democrats, even in my worst nightmares. I’m expecting them to pick up 5, maybe 6 seats. But they’ll lose one when they boot Lieberman from their caucus. Congress is harder, maybe a pickup of 12 to 15 at the outside. All depends on how the Democrats who won traditionally Republican seats in 2006 do in their first run for reelection.
“I don’t see a supermajority for the Democrats, even in my worst nightmares.”
I hope you’re correct, but I don’t leave anything to chance. This is too important.
Also, my goals are higher than simply stopping the Dems from becoming the supermajority - I’m aiming for the Republican U.S. senators to become the majority again.
If the Republican U.S. senators become the majority again, they will regain control of the Judicial Committee, and then more conservative nominees will be allowed to the floor for an up or down vote.
